For grown-ups

Companion summary

Imagine you could run further, jump higher, or hold a plank longer than you ever have before. Athletes like footballers and swimmers set small goals every week to keep getting better. Even a tiny goal, like walking for five extra minutes each day, adds up to something amazing over a month. When you finish today, pick one thing your body could do a little more of and write it down.

What Would You Like to Get Better At?

Imagine you could press a magic button and instantly become better at one physical activity. Would you run faster? Do more press-ups? Hold a balance longer? Every athlete in the world — from beginners to champions — has something they want to improve. That something is called a goal. Before we can improve, we need to know exactly what we are aiming for. Think about your own body and the activities you enjoy. What is one thing you would love to get better at?

💭 Think about this

Name one physical activity you enjoy and one thing about it you would like to improve. For example: 'I like running and I want to run further without stopping.'

How to Set a SMART Fitness Goal

A is a target you set for yourself to improve something about your own fitness or physical ability. The key word is 'personal' — your goal is about YOU, not about beating someone else. A good fitness goal is . SMART is a word made from the first letters of five important ideas. Let's look at each one. S — Specific. A specific goal is clear and detailed. 'Get fitter' is too vague. 'Run 400 metres without stopping' is specific because you know exactly what you are trying to do. M — . A measurable goal lets you count or track your progress. 'Do 10 press-ups in a row' is measurable because you can count to 10. A — . An achievable goal is challenging but possible for you right now. If you can currently do 3 press-ups, aiming for 10 is achievable. Aiming for 100 tomorrow is not. R — Relevant. A relevant goal links to something you actually care about. If you love football, a goal about improving your stamina for football is relevant to you. T — . A time-bound goal has a deadline — a date you want to reach it by. 'I want to do 10 press-ups in a row within four weeks' has a clear time limit. When your goal hits all five SMART points, you have a roadmap that tells you what to do, how to measure progress, and when to celebrate reaching your target.

Worked example

Aisha loves swimming but gets out of breath after two lengths. She wants to set a SMART goal. Here is what she writes: • Specific: Swim 4 lengths of the pool without stopping. • Measurable: Count the number of lengths I complete each session. • Achievable: I can already do 2 lengths, so 4 is a stretch but possible. • Relevant: I swim every week and want to feel stronger in the water. • Time-bound: I will reach this in 6 weeks. Aisha's SMART goal: 'I will swim 4 lengths of the pool without stopping within 6 weeks, tracking my lengths each session.' Notice how every detail is included. Aisha knows exactly what to do, how to measure it, and when to aim for it.

Practice: Check Your SMART Knowledge

A personal fitness goal is a target YOU set for YOUR own improvement — not about beating others.
SMART stands for Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Relevant, and Time-bound.
A SMART goal gives you a clear plan: what to do, how to track it, and when to reach it.

1. Zoe says: 'I will do 15 sit-ups in a row within 4 weeks. Right now I can do 8.' Which two SMART steps does '4 weeks' and '8 sit-ups right now' help her check?

🌱 Reflect

Think about the personal fitness goal you imagined at the start of the lesson. Can you now make it SMART? Which part — Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Relevant, or Time-bound — was hardest to add?
